Risk management is a systematic method to identify, analyze and monitoring the risk involved in any activities and process. It also a central part of any organization’s strategic management. It is the process whereby organizations methodically address the risks attaching to their activities with the goal of achieving sustained benefit within each activity and across the portfolio of all activities. Risk management is the identification, assessment, and prioritization of risks (defined in ISO 31000 as the effect of uncertainty on objectives, whether positive or negative) followed by coordinated and economical application of resources to minimize, monitor, and control the probability and/or impact of unfortunate events or to maximize the realization of opportunities. Risks can come from uncertainty in financial markets, project failures (at any phase in design, development, production, or sustainment life-cycles), legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural causes and disasters as well as deliberate attack from an adversary, or events of uncertain or unpredictable root-cause.

3. Identification and Analysis of Sime Darby’s Risk Management

Our group will focus on 3 elements which are the policy, reporting risk structure and audit meeting. We chose MMC Corporation Bhd (MMC) to do comparisons of risk management with Sime Darby because; this company is a premier utilities and infrastructure group with interests in Transport and Logistics, Energy and Utilities and Engineering Construction. Since, the issue of Sime Darby is about Energy & Utilities; therefore MMC Corporations Bhd owns strategic assets in Malakoff (Malaysia’s largest independent power producer).

1. Risk Policy

As we can see in the table below, Sime Darby just want to create culture in their organization the importance of Risk Management. But, for MMC they tend to create thorough risk management strategy to prevent from undesirable outcome.

RiskManagement
The main purpose of riskmanagement is to prevent, minimize and eliminate unacceptable risks. Riskmanagement consists of analyzing, assessing, controlling and avoiding. In order to properly manage future events, an organization will typically use a combination of risk assumption, risk avoidance, andrisk transfer. Riskmanagement is essential any time an event manager analyzes and attempts to assess potential losses in an investment, and then takes the appropriate actions in order to minimize and prevent risks- whether it is losses of capital, to accident prevention.
Simply put, riskmanagement consists of two steps. First, one must determine what risks exist in an investment, such as an event, and then handling those risks in a way best suited to the objectives of the event. Creating a special events management team has the benefit of focusing on the planning and management of a special event and establishing who is specifically responsible for each function. The team can handle important information regarding the planning or management of the event. This can be critical in emergency situations that require decisive action.

...RiskManagementRiskmanagement is the process of evaluation and quantification of business risks in order to take the necessary measures to control or reduce them. Riskmanagement in organizations includes the methods and processes used to manage risks and seize opportunities related to the achievement of their objectives. By identifying and proactively addressingrisks and opportunities, business enterprises protect and create value for their stakeholders, including owners, employees, customers, regulators, and society overall. Riskmanagement expands the process to include not just risks associated with accidental losses, but also financial, strategic, operational, and all other risks that a business might be exposed to. Different organizations face different kinds of risks according to their core business, culture and external environment. Therefore, there is no one-size-fits-all approach of handling risks within an organization. However, one can argue that, for riskmanagement to thrive in any organization, risk awareness must be embedded in the wider culture of the enterprise through easily understood behaviors. Riskmanagement is most successful when it is explicitly linked to...

...done to prevent this from happening. An effective riskmanagement approach as it relates to security can have three elements; assessment of threat, pin pointing the vulnerabilities, and a plan of action to succeed. For instance, to avert potential terrorist’s acts against America and worldwide, other nations must collaborate in forming a unit to oppose activist threats; however the key issue in creating a worldwide counter-terrorist center of operations the inability in establishing a sole characterization of “terrorism”, due to a majority of countries description of terrorism is built solely towards political posture. Likewise, organizations like the United Nations, whose mission is to promote peace and mutual aid international, should establish a clear and precise definition to support the foundation of an international counter-terrorist organization. Moreover, the United States can improve relations with countries by embracing and continuing to work with North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and its international community in order to protect the U.S. territories. Organization riskmanagement requires a sound understanding of the principles of risk as it combines the product of a possibility of loss, misfortune or catastrophe.

...Introduction
This article talks about SimeDarby Berhad (SD), the largest multinational company in Malaysia, which has recently acquired 30% of Eastern & Oriental Berhad (E&O)’s shares from 3 of its main stakeholders – E&O Managing Director and founding member Datuk Tham Ka Hon, Tan Sri Wan Azmi Wan Hamzah, and GK Goh Holdings Limited (Singapore). In our critique, we will discuss the factors influencing SD’s decision, the impact of this acquisition on stock prices of both companies, and how the market would react if SD was obliged to make a Mandatory General Offer (MGO) to buy out all E&O shares.
M&A - Diversification
SD is a leading multinational conglomerate in Malaysia, with a net worth of USD16.34 billion. It has six divisions, with the property division’s revenue contribution at a distant fourth behind the Motor, Plantation, and Industrial divisions’ .
Despite 40 years of experience in developing property, much of SD Property’s prime land bank still remains undeveloped. SD has chosen to diversify and strengthen its property division by acquiring expertise in various niche markets; working with and getting a feel of operations of well-known players in these fields . Similar to a diversified investment portfolio, strengthening and diversifying each division allows SD to better hedge against economic downturns, as property markets respond differently to economic shocks compared to SD’s other core divisions.
